Welcome back, Arrowheads! When last we left Oliver Queen, he had fulfilled (more or less) an arrangement with Brick to get in touch with whoever brought in those goons to rough him up in Slabside. Meantime, we met the Longbow Hunters, three mercenaries who proved to be very formidable against Diggle and ARGUS, but not enough to have the plans of Diaz, their boss, thwarted. Felicity is getting a little tired of having to look behind her shoulder now that Diaz openly attacked her, so she goes to the one person who might be able to help: FBI agent Samanda Watson. Oh, and we won’t be discussing and flashforwards this episode because there wasn’t any. Anyhoo, let’s just get into it… Continue reading →

Welcome back, Arrowheads! Last time we left Prisoner 4587: Oliver Queen, he had been trying to keep low and do his time in Slabside Prison. But leave it to an attack on him and Felicity by Ricardo Diaz to put him back into a more proactive position. As for the rest of Team Arrow, they are adjusting to life not crimefighting in masks, and discovering that there’s someone else wearing the hood of the Green Arrow in town! Well, I’ll save you some time and tell you we don’t get an answer to who it is this episode, but as to how our heroes will deal with the returning Diaz? Read on, then… Continue reading →

Welcome back from the summer break, Arrowheads! As you might recall from the end of last season, Team Arrow took some serious crippling blows in the battle against bad guy Ricardo Diaz. They lost Quentin Lance (sniff), and in order to protect all of them from prosecution by the FBI, Ollie made a deal to turn himself in as the Green Arrow! But we still got Diaz out there somewhere, and Oliver Queen in prison as a publicly outed vigilante. So how do we come back from all of that? Well, read on… Continue reading →

Welcome back, Arrowheads! So we’re here at the end of season six, and things are getting tough for Team Arrow. Not only have they lost both their HQs, Ricardo Diaz has solidified his hold on Star City and whatever’s left of the Quadrant. So of course Ollie has to make a Hail Mary pass by asking for help from FBI agent Samanda Watson. All she wants to give her help is to know Ollie is the Green Arrow. He confirms that, but she asks for something else. That “something else” is what we’re about to learn about. Continue reading →

Welcome back, Arrowheads! Ricardo Diaz has been spending his time grabbing control of Star City, while slowly dismantling Oliver’s team. And Ollie’s trial for being the Green Arrow seemed like it would be the deathblow. But thanks to some smart planning from Team Arrow, Ollie gets off! So Diaz decides it’s time to just forget the subtle machinations, and go to straight up bulldozing Team Arrow and everyone around them! Well, we got this and the season finale left, so we kinda had to get here. Continue reading →

Welcome back, Arrowheads! Oliver Queen this season started on a big high of having a family, being Mayor of Star City, and occasionally being the Green Arrow. But now, things are just in the pits with almost all of his teammates gone on their own, him being impeached from office, and in the crosshairs of an investigation to prove he is the vigilante we all know he is. And last we left, we learned thanks to Ricardo Diaz being plugged in throughout the city, he’s going to have Ollie’s trial…about now-ish. How is he gonna get out of this mess with all those cards stacked against him? Continue reading →

Welcome back, Arrowheads! While Ricardo Diaz is consolidating power for himself in Star City and aligning himself with the criminal cadre known as The Quadrant, Team Arrow is splintered all over the place. Diggle is now working at ARGUS, the noobs are waiting for Rene to return to duty, and Oliver is on his own, waging a one man war against crime once again! Good thing for Ollie that he’s currently out of a job as a mayor right now, because he’s got a lot of work to do in taking down Diaz. Continue reading →

Welcome back, Arrowheads! You could understand how stressed Oliver Queen has been this season: he’s been a vigilante, also a mayor, and now a husband and father. Juggling all that can’t be easy, what with his teammates all leaving in disgust. But add to that Ricardo Diaz’s machinations to take over the city internally, that FBI investigation, and now the move for Ollie’s impeachment from office, it wouldn’t be a stretch to see how he might feel like everything’s going wrong. Well, it’s gonna get worse. Continue reading →

Welcome back, Arrowheads! You know, thinking back on this season, we really haven’t learned much about our big bad guy of this season, Ricardo “The Dragon” Diaz. I mean, besides playing Cayden James like a fiddle, and corrupting a lot of public officials, we don’t know really who he is. So, who is he? Should we even care? Well either way, let’s learn a little bit about him… Continue reading →

Welcome back, Arrowheads! Previously, crime boss Ricardo Diaz has started to slowly take control of Star City. Meanwhile, Team Arrow has been splintered all over the place, unable to get a foothold on stopping all of this. Thea’s left, the newbies are left in limbo, and Diggle is wondering when he’s going to ever put the Green Arrow hood on again. I could ask how things could get any worse, but as you’ll see, things already have. Continue reading →
